Great, needs work because it is taking time

By mllapan on May 15, 2023

This plugin is best related content plugin, only if it can work a bit lighter, because I noticed it does heavy tasks with database.

Exclude Post/page IDs and Exclude display is not working.

By right02 on May 3, 2023

I have added Comma-separated list of post or page IDs to exclude from the list, Also using "Insert Pages" Plugin to insert those page(Exluded Ids) to display in another pages.

In Induvial pages is related posts are not displaying, but in the Insert of same Pages, related posts are displaying.

Expectation is to not display the excluded pages in the Insert Pages as well.

Excluded Ids: 3,20,27,31,33,35,42,44

Does perfectly the job!

By Ervael on March 2, 2023

I'm using this plugin for a while now and it's doing perfectly the job. It's easy to configure, you have enough options to customize it but the more important is the fact related posts displayed are always accurate. This plugin is doing it very well and better than some similar plugins. I recommend it!

Best Related Posts plugin

By (hefestus) on January 29, 2023

I've been using the Contextual Related Posts plugin probably since it was realized, many years ago. It's doing a great job on my huge site with 12k posts and 8k categories. Recently, it stopped working because of another plugin and some other issues. In desperation, I tried all the available related post plugins. None of those plugins can match this one. This plugin offers many ways to fine-tune results and adjust the display. Even Ajay's free support is second to none.

I highly recommend this plugin. If it works flawlessly on my huge site with a thousand taxonomies, it will work on any other WordPress site.

The best related posts plugin. Excellent support!

Very happy with this plugin. Please continue with the great job!

for me the best!

I've tried many, even very famous ones, but no one is able to relate my favorite posts to me. I can also select the keywords I want for an accurate definition of the relationship between posts. Thanks developers!

Nice Plugin

Easy to use, more nice option to display relate post for "Free Plugin"

Works in minutes. Nice!

I feel conflicted in how I would like a little bit more styling options. But the canned layouts look pretty decent and it's easy to get stuff working. I wish more plugins were this easy.

Really cool plugin

By mbhusal on June 18, 2022
